Description
In this blend of Château de la Gardine, no less than five classic grapes from the Rhône shine, namely roussanne, clairette, viognier, grenache blanc and Bourboulenc grapes. They are all grown on a rocky terroir of limestone. After the harvest, the grapes are immediately pressed and fermented to retain maximum freshness. The fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks.
In the glass this Côtes du Rhône Blanc aoc 'Brunel de la Gardine' has a light lemon yellow color with a fresh nose of peach, lemon, grapefruit and all this surrounded by the typical minerality of the limestone soil on which the vineyards are located. In the mouth is the wine round with a good balance between the fruit and the fresh acids. This is not for nothing one of our best-sellers. A lot of wine for the money.
Delicious as a standalone glass and goes perfectly with a quiche, for example with salmon or cod. Also a good match with soft cheeses, such as goat cheese, cancoillotte, valençay.
The Brunel family's winemaking tradition dates back to the 17th century. Gaston Brunel, a famous merchant, bought Château de la Gardine in Châteauneuf du Pape in 1945. The estate is now run by his two sons, Patrick and Maxime, with the help of their wives Eve and Maryse and their children Marie-Odile and Philippe. The estate extends over 52 hectares of vineyards (48 hectares of red and 4 hectares of white) and 20 hectares of forest, all surrounding the property. The estate is renowned for the quality of its wines and the unique Gardine bottle.

The Brunel family's winemaking tradition dates back to the 17th century. Gaston Brunel, a famous merchant, bought Château de la Gardine in Châteauneuf du Pape in 1945. The estate is now run by his two sons, Patrick and Maxime, with the help of their wives Eve and Maryse and their children Marie-Odile and Philippe. The estate extends over 52 hectares of vineyards (48 hectares red and 4 hectares white) and 20 hectares of woodland, all surrounding the property. The domain is known for the quality of their wines and the unique Gardine bottle. Today, about 70% of production is exported to about 30 countries.
In 1998, the Brunel family saw the potential of the terroir in Lirac. The family therefore also bought Château Saint Roch with 40 hectares of land in Roquemaure where a selection of red, white and rosé wines is produced. It is Eve Brunel, who is also the oenologist for both La Gardine and St Roch, who runs the estate. Robert Parker once said “Don't underestimate the potential of the Brunel family's Château Saint Roch in Lirac. They make wines of an excellent price-quality ratio."
Today, the Brunel family returns to the trading tradition with "Brunel de le Gardine". They offer a wide range of wines from the Northern and Southern Rhone. Patrick Brunel chooses the best wines from each appellation using his trusting relationships with top growers in the region. The family uses all their knowledge and experience to blend and mature the wines, respecting the tradition and the characteristics of each terroir. The quality packaging, with the special Gardine bottle, is the signature of this fine selection of wines.
The Gardine bottle, original and elegant, was created by spontaneous coincidence. When Gaston Brunel first wanted to expand his cellar and dig in the ground, he found a very old mouth-blown bottle. He liked the shape, so he decided to bottle all his wine in a similar bottle. At first he couldn't find a manufacturer in France who could reproduce this bottle, it was that special. He had them made in Italy. Since 1964, all Gardine wines have been bottled in the unique bottle.
